Abstract
Results of the study suggest that women with coronary heart disease (CHD) and metabolic syndrome (MS) are higher than men's, indicators of general and abdominal obesity - body mass index and waist circumference. Gender-specific characteristics of body composition of middle-aged patients with CHD and MS may be due to a decrease in circulating androgens in men and estrogen in women.
